Scams
« on: January 29, 2015, 06:51:12 am »
I am curious as to if anyone has had any issues with any of the offers they see on this site.  The reason I ask is there have been a couple I am interested in but they require downloading software that cannot be deleted or uninstalled.  I have Google Searched a couple and they come back as a high risk for spam a scam or a site that cannot be trusted.  I don't think this is the fault of Fusion Cash in any way.  I am just wondering if anyone has ever had any issues.  Thanks for your help.

PS - I did have one issue one time and I reported it to FC and they said they would forward my concerns on to the company with the offer and it was a Paid to Call offer.  The guy I talked to demanded a call back number so he could call me back and the instructions say if that happens to tell them your phone cannot take in-coming calls and he smarted off and hung up on me.

I've downloaded software several times and only had issues maybe once

I know some antivirus software will warn you about just about anything else you try to install but doesn't actually have any problems

My general rule is to keep away from offers that require me to download software on my computer....

I always have this fear of the unknown. So I agree with most of you about NOT to download anything that might cause you and your computer heaps of trouble in the future. It is so frustrating true story. I learned my lesson.

This one wanted me to download to a mobile device.  The search identified the company as high risk as voted on by other users.  So I passed on it.  Yeah I am leary of having to download software esp when it is to track what I do.

i have never had an issue with any offers i have done on this site however i do my research on them prior to participating in them and mostly only in the free offers because im really unwilling to just give over my credit card info to just anyone. also will not download anything to my computer used to in the past and lost a couple of computers that way to massive virus issues.

I had a problem with a survey that asked me to download software that slowed my computer down.
